          Abstract

          The recent availability of targeted anti-TRK therapies represents a new opportunity to treat patients with advanced cancers harboring NTRK gene fusions. In this article, we present an update on the practical modalities of implementing a "NTRK testing" to search for these fusions in view of the performances and availability of the different testing methods and the epidemiological characteristics of the tumors liable to present the NTRK1, NTRK2 or NTRK3 gene fusions.
